salam and hello to every body…My problem is that i failed my p7 paper twice in my first attempt i got only 32 marks out of 80% completion and in this second attempt i got 42 out of the 82% completion… i am so much demotivated.. my p2 knowledge z strong… plz can any one guide me to pass it in the incoming dec attempt
Hi Narmi,
I am in the same situation. I took it 5 times and this is my last exam. I don’t want to discourage you but I tried to get feedback from ACCA it didn’t work.
I personally also don’t have an idea what else to do to pass this paper. I am not going to tell you to review articles and past exam papers etc because i believe you already did.
So please let me know if there is a strong advise you get and share it with everyone because 70% of people are failing this paper.
Cheers…

I have also failed this paper and this will be my fourth attempt . I will see the education director for ACCA in our region to see if I will get any help. Its the only paper remaining and Iam feeling so discouraged . Please share the advice you get . Its hard to give up last minute yet the situation is pushing me
I passes P7 in June which was my first attempt.
Although the paper is interesting its also very tricky and things can easily go wrong.
I think you need to pay more attention to the application of your knowledge to questions, exam techniques and interpreting the examiner’s questions correctly.
it might be helpful if you book a revision course with either BPP, Kaplan or LSBF which will help improve your exam technique, how to interprete exam questions and how to access and apply your knowledge under exam conditions.
will also be useful to study carefuly the examiners answers to past questions which should point you in the right direction.
Hope this helps
Osariemenhi everyone ,i have passed p7 on my first attempt.
one thing you got to make sure that you have to compile your own course notes because nothing in isolation is sufficient.you got to take out material from three sources articles ,past papers and course book ofcourse.for a given topic compile each piece of information you get from these sources at one place which you will then use for the exam prepration.e.g group accounts is topic :there would be some info in the book some in articles and some in past exams when you practice.frankly writting is the key to pass it i use to first attempt the question by my own use to mark it from marking scheme then read the answer and again rewrite it …………using ur own brain 1 st time is reaaly important……………….practice and writting of past exams is key to success……..one more thing divide the exam into standards not the topics as you will be always confused about your knowledge e.g reports is a topic it would be difficult to memorie all the thing in a chapter which almost contains 7 ISA it would be better to make each ISA a topic by this you will remember the name of the ISA and exactly what that says ……………..conceps really need to be crystal clear that needs research practicing same questions 100 times with vague concepts wont really benifit you rather practicing with clear concepts even if you have practised only once or twice …………….again writting and the concepts is the main thing which will solve all your problems thats for sure ……………and by the i had only attempted a 80 mark paper out of which i got 58 ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,any body who has given p5 plz advice me what to do with this paper- Topics: 0

UgandaOne thing i want to add..
Time management is most important in exam hall…
Allocate the time for every question you do and be strict in this regard..
Only give allocated time to answering the question NO MORE EXTRA MINUTE!
leave your answer in that state either it is complete or not..
I m sure your answer will be in last stage.. You know last few lines may earn us maximum 3 to 5 marks.. but in this same time you can earn much marks in next question!!
